im trying to write a persuasive essay on banning cellphones for children that young. One reason why im saying that is that small children are more likely to be damaged by the harmful electromagnetic radiation cellphones emit, because they have thinner skulls than we adults have. I want to include things such as social issues that cellphones may cause. give me something that i can backup with past cases that have occurred.

  1. Because kids should realize that a cell phone is a luxury, not a necessity. I've seen so many spoiled kids who look no older than 13 with iPhones, Sidekicks, and Blackberries. A cell phone is a nice thing to have, but children need to realize having one is a privilege that must be earned and respected.


  2. Scuzeee me! what if we get kidnapped?

    And we have no way 2 contact n e sot of helpp.

  3. i don't know of any studies done about cell phones and radiation, at least not on minors.  I know UCLA did a study that found mothers who were pregnant and used cellphones made their children prone to having behavioral problems. but you can talk about alot of stuff like the cost ect.

  4. I think it is too much responsibility for a child because they have to make sure they do not lose it. If they are not working for it they will care less for it. If they lose a cell phone or someone steals it from them, that child's mind will be focused on trying to figure out who did it, and even fights or anymosity will build against their peers. Education will not be first for them.

  5. The girl above me is the reason why.  Jesus, speak english girl.  You can call help but not a d**n person's gonna understand you.

    Edit: I was referring to Katianna

  6. Because the lil ones already have a short attention spam for school, add to that a cellphone with games, music and other features on them and their focus goes right out the window.

    Not to mention cellphones though they may not be expensive like before they tend to bring out the "I'm better than you because I have a better cellphone" topic.
